About this study

Official title: Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Registry Study to Determine if Enrollment in a Regional Kidney Paired Donor Exchange Program Improves the Overall Rate of Kidney Transplantation in Sensitized Patients, and Sensitized Patients Undergoing Desensitization Treatments.

This is a prospective, multi-center, observational study to determine if a combination of desensitization and enrollment in a regional kidney paired donor (KPD) exchange program improves the overall rate of kidney transplantation in sensitized patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The rate of kidney transplant in sensitized patients following desensitization and enrollment in a regional kidney paired donor exchange program

    The rate of kidney transplant in sensitized patients following desensitization and enrollment in a regional kidney paired donor exchange program will be summarized.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall number of kidney transplants per center/region

    To determine the overall number of kidney transplants per center/region.

    Measured: 24 months

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of kidney transplant in sensitized patients following desensitization and enrollment in a regional kidney paired donor exchange program (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
